(Figs 18 A–D, 19A–D)

Type-material examined. Lectotype. Male: “ Chile \ 17. x. 02 \ Palca [green, printed label and partially handwritten, 02 = 1902]”; “ LECTOTYPE ♁ \ Coenosia \ hirtitibia \ Stein, 1911 \ Des. A. C. Pont 1999 [white printed label]” (SMT) (Fig. 18D) . Paralectotypes 1♁ 6♀♀. Same data as lectotype , 1♀ (SMT). Sorata, 2300m, v. 1903 , 1♁ 1♀ (SMT); xii. 1903, 2♀♀ (SMT), 19. xii. 1902, 1♀ (SMT). Peru, Chanchamayo, 18. i. 1904 , 1♀ (SMT) .

Additional material examined. Same data as lectotype, 1♀ ; 15. x. 02, 1♀; 20. x. 02, 1♀. Bolivia, La Paz, 30. xi. 02, 2♀♀; xi. 02, 1♀ (SMT) .

Diagnosis. Stomopogon hirtitibia differs from all other species of the genus, but is similar to S. capribarba, in having fore coxa with several long white setae and scutum with two large brown vittae. Stomopogon hirtitibia can be separated from the latter by the black legs.
